[QUOTE="Zulu, post: 4128496, member: 5425"] I will start off by telling you that I take offense at your assumption regarding my thoughts; "For who among men knows the thoughts of a man save the spirit of the man which is in him?" (1 Cor. 2:11). I can tell you that I think this IS the first time I've ever been accused of being a "kool aid drinker." The more common accusation is that I'm "overly-rational." I will rephrase my statement regarding Taylor: signing him was [b]wrong.[/b] However, UA corrected that error by dismissing him. I also realize that for every Jonathan Taylor, there are countless unsung role-models like a personal favorites: Barrett Jones (hometown Memphis boy, All-American at three different positions, won both the Outland and Rimington trophies, plus graduated [i]suma cum laude[/i] with a BA [b]and[/b] an MBA), Jalston Fowler (self described "teenage troublemaker" who grew up and earned both a Bachelor's and a Master's in 4 1/2 years and now starts at fullback for the Titans), and, of course, AJ McCarron, where this video says it all: [youtube]BAHW44xVsVg[/youtube] Bama fanatic or hard-core hater, I'd have to question the humanity of anyone who could watch that without getting choked up. Does the University of Alabama football program have it's warts? Of course. I'd challenge you to find any program that doesn't. But it also has plenty of diamonds. Enough diamonds for [b]this[/b] supporter to be proud. [/QUOTE]
